Sam J Christopher
My hope is built on my witness
Not
Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust His sweetest Name,
So also lean on my own name.
I dare not trust His sweetest Name,
So also lean on my own name.
Refrain:
On Christ, the part-time Rock, I stand;
All my own ground can help me stand.
All my own ground can help me stand.
On Christ, the part-time Rock, I stand;
All my own ground can help me stand.
All my own ground can help me stand.
When
darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on my own strength and faith;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within my sail.
I rest on my own strength and faith;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within my sail.
His
oath, His covenant, His blood
Is not enough in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
My self-effort will be my stay.
Is not enough in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
My self-effort will be my stay.
When
He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, in my strength may I be found;
Dressed in my righteousness alone,
My trumpet loud before the throne.
Oh, in my strength may I be found;
Dressed in my righteousness alone,
My trumpet loud before the throne.
Epilogue:
You see, I have been pondering on
some discussion relating to God's salvation plan. Some Christians hold that
God's salvation plan comes in 2 separate parts - where God does His part and
man does his part, in order for that salvation to be materialize effectively –
like a glue plus hardener. I don't subscribe to that.
